Let's Talk about Automation and Blue Collar Work

Brad and Steve are solo this week talking about a topic that everyone is on everyones mind.

They cover the different ways automation is affecting blue-collar jobs, including the potential role of unions in protecting workers' rights.

The conversation also addresses the infrastructure challenges of transitioning to green materials and electric cars. But don't worry, the hosts emphasize the importance of keeping blue-collar businesses strong for future generations.

With the new "Brad and Steve" component, Blue Collar B.S. keeps listeners engaged with thought-provoking conversations.

Highlights:

• 1:08-Automation and Fear of Job Displacement. Understanding where the fear is coming from and believing that you can learn new skills and take a different path. Look at it as an opportunity not a negative.
• 7:57 This transition is not just affecting Blue Collar workers, its hitting everyone in society as a whole. There will be growing pains, but things have a way of working themselves out.
• 11:45 Embracing Change and a New Show Feature.
